I have a share setup on a Samba 4.0.8 / CentOS 6.4 box that is successfully replicating with a W2K3 server. I'm following the HOWTO here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_and_configure_file_shares [mytest] path = /home/me/mytestshare <-- with or without trailing slash read only = No On the W2K3 box, I can browse to \\newdc and I see my test share listed there. I can also see

I have a SerNet Samba 4.0.8 AD DC running on CentOS 6.4 (newdc) replicating from a W2K3 DC (olddc). When I first launch Samba using `sudo samba`, I can go to the Windows server and browse to \\newdc in Explorer, and I see mytestshare, netlogon, printers, sysvol, and "Printers and Faxes". After a while (I'm not sure how long precisely, but under 24 hours) I could not navigate

With iptables disabled until I can figure out appropriate rules ( http://www.spinics.net/lists/samba/msg104592.html -- what do you do then? ) I added a user using samba-tool user add. If I go to the Windows box and fire up ADUC, the user is not there, even though the AD Replication Status tool reports successful replication. If I right-click the domain in ADUC, and choose Connect to Domain

I have a SerNet Samba 4.0.8 AD DC running on CentOS 6.4 (newdc) replicating from a W2K3 DC (olddc). newdc also has a test share. I'm experiencing something strange whereby chmod and then an attempted file save causes a shared file to become zero bytes (despite the save not being blank, and also being denied): At olddc: 1) open \\newdc\testshare\yay.txt At newdc: $ ls -l total 8

Hi all, Running SerNet Samba 4.0.9 on CentOS 6.4 serving as an AD DC and fileshare for XP clients. Added recycler per the example at https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions to my smb.conf. Works great. My concern is that the recycle dir will eventually grow large. vfs_recycle's docs mention a parameter for limiting individual file sizes, but what's a best

Hi, I have a CentOS 6.4 box running SerNet Samba 4.0.9 as an AD DC replicating from a W2k3 box. If I run "gpresult /s OLDDC /user MYDOM\Me" on a command prompt on OLDDC, I get a normal output, listing which GPOs are applied. If I run "gpresult /s NEWDC /user MYDOM\Me" in the same place, I get "ERROR: The RPC server is unavailable." This is after a fresh restart

Hi, I have a CentOS 6.4 fileserver running SerNet Samba 4.0.9 with these global settings (not overridden): read only = No force create mode = 0777 force directory mode = 0777 inherit acls = yes inherit owner = yes inherit permissions = yes On a Windows client, I have Thunderbird 24.0 storing its profile and mail on the Samba share. The

Hi, On CentOS 6.4 (newdc), I have CUPS 1.4.2-50.el6_4.5 installed, can access its web interface. There I set up our main shared printer, an OCE Imagistics cm2520, and successfully printed a test page. With SerNet Samba 4.0.9 on the same box configured every which example way I could find, I cannot seem to get it to the point where double-clicking the printer in Windows (W2K3, OLDDC) opens

Hi, I'm cross-posting here from serverfault.com in case anyone can help. I just found a similar question on askubuntu.com also without an answer. Switched recently from W2K3 to Samba4.0.9/CentOS6.4 for our fileshare for WinXP clients. Have an ancient (1995!) piece of software that uses 8.3 filename format. After the switch, long filenames became useless in the context of the

I have a CentOS 6.4 box with SerNet's Samba 4.0.8 installed and no smb.conf file yet, as it should be. I want it to become an AD DC in my existing Windows domain, replicating from the existing Windows Server 2003 box. I have SELinux enabled and want it to stay that way. I'm getting this error trying to run samba-tool: $ sudo samba-tool domain join currentwindowsadserver.mydomain.lan

Hi everyone, I had posted recently about getting Samba4 to work on CentOS 6.4 but having changes only replicating in one direction, from the Win2k3 AD but not back to it. I solved the problem, this time, by disabling iptables. I find it a bit hard to understand. These are the rules I have set up: *filter :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [52:5888] -A INPUT -m state
